Nearly two years ago, a French court dismissed a lawsuit that Nintendo filed against a group of vendors accused of illegally selling DS flash carts. At the time, the game-maker argued that sales of the cartridges should be halted on the grounds that they could be used to illegally pirate software, b...

It's a return of two classic mascots on the Wii this week, sort of. A good Sonic the Hedgehog game -- and, in fact, one that is kind of Sonic the Hedgehog 4 -- is up on the Virtual Console, with Lock-On tech intact; and Konami's Frogger is doing what he does best (almost dying in traffic). And also...

Following a weekend of play against the team, Studio Zan has announced another cool initiative for Overturn's online mode: the ability for American players to connect and fight with Japanese players! "As more gamers from Japan join in on the fun," Studio Zan told us in a press release, "the game wil...

Have you been enjoying Studio Zan's robot fighting game Overturn? Why not show your appreciation by letting the game's development staff destroy you in combat? (You probably won't have to let them.) Or, to put a nicer spin on it, by showing the developers your customized mech! (Which will then be de...

This week is a special one for Nintendo fans. Not only do we finally see an end to the Virtual Console drought, but we also get fighting robots and a new Art Style game.

On WiiWare, the biggest news is Cave Story! Even thou...

Studio Zan's Overturn looked great when it came out in Japan last December. Well, seemed great -- the graphics are a bit rough. The WiiWare mech combat game had some pretty enticing features: both local and online multiplayer, and even Balance Board compatibility. The only feature it lacked was a kn...

Nintendo of Japan has started off December the right way: with a bunch of video games. Between Virtual Console and WiiWare, an astounding six new (or new to Wii) games are available in Japan today. Of course, one of those games is Atlantis no Nazo, which was so bad, it was almost released as a seque...

Studio Zan is lining up a November release in Japan for Overturn, a new vehicular combat game that sees manga characters (who look oddly out of place next to the game's 3D arenas) take control of hulking great robots.Overturn has yet to be priced or confirmed for a western release, but a Game Watch...

ruling on Immersion's haptic technology patents and receive a new trial was denied in court recently.The
